I live in zone 8b in WA state and I am having a heck of a time getting this plant to thrive. It's in partial shade, in good soil, watered regularly, planted next to a cement column so it has a chance to climb. It's only the first year, but all it wants to do is turn bronze color and vegetate. I thought it only turned color in the fall, so what am I doing to confuse this plant?
